Stock Airbox

Stock airbox and Velocity Stack is in to replace my Blitz Sus Intake Filter... Let's see if there will be any improvements... =)

What are you using to measure that it's not pulling as hard?

Sound can have a very pronounced effect on the butt-dyno. Perhaps since the intake whoosh is gone now and it's so quiet, you think there is less power?

Yes I'm using the BUTT DYNO!

it doesn't feel as agressive. Yes the sound that it used to make does play a big roll but with all the sounds aside when I stomp on the peddle it just doesn't feel as strong! Like I stated earlier it could be that the computer needs to be adjusted to it again.

Hehehe...But Dyno does it again though... I put that Blitz Sus back in now I'm a happy camper!

Quick question though since TurboXS doesn't tune for any type of intake system (so they say on the phone and on the paper that comes back with the chip after reprograming) will it be ok for me to leave it in? They had told me that someone in the mainland had blown up there engine with a Blitz Intake installed in there car with the stage 4 map! anyone know about this?

I plan on trying out my new stage 4 with the stock airbox since I bought that velocity stack (thanks Mitch for the info).


Mitch: Thanks for the offer and I will consider it but if I can use it then I don't think I'll be selling it. I kinda like the WOOSH sound you speak of!

Look man, your going to have so much more HP with your stage 4. Your not going to care if your Blitz intake is on or not. It's not worth the 5hp the intake may be good for, to mess up your tuned map and throw some timing to lose 15hp.


****Am I wrong?*****

Dan,

You're not wrong, you're so VERY right.

I'm in 100% agreement.

Richard...
